By the way, whatever happened to discussion of "fuzzy logic" and
"genetic algorithms"?

What happened to them? They're everywhere in academic papers. They've become an easy way to get published.  Nowadays they make up so many bio-inspired variations of these algorithms that I think that they are going to run out of animal names to assign to them. Most of these publications are thrash, but there are a handful of genuine applications.

Fuzzy logic is still out there too, and in fact there are mature applications in the field.

I usually refuse to review such papers for IEEE.  Some links about the diversity of bio-inspired stuff:
